Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Questions from South Perrott

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Perrott

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Perrott use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for South Perrott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
